• State verbs are verbs which do not normally have continuous tenses because they describe а state rather
than an action. These include:
• verbs expressing likes and dislikes: like, love, hate, dislike, can't stand, don't mind, prefer, enjoy, etc.
Thomas likes jazz music.
Note: Verbs expressing likes/dislikes take а noun or an -ing form after them.
She can't stand cats.
Не loves playing basketball.
• verbs of perception: believe, know, notice, remember, forget, understand, think, etc.
/ don't understand the meaning of that word.
• verbs of the senses: see, hear, feel, taste, look, smell, sound. We often use сап or could with these verbs
when we refer to what we see, hear, etc., at the moment of speaking.
The cake tastes delicious.
I сап hear children 's voices coming from the playground.
• some other verbs: fit, contain, need, belong, cost, owe, mean, own, appear, want, have (= possess), etc.
This dress is very expensive. lt costs f250.
Some state verbs have continuous tenses, but there is а difference in meaning.
1) / think she needs help. (= / believe ...)
l'm thinking about buying а new саг. (= /'т considering ...)
2) This pasta tastes delicious! (= This pasta has а delicious flavour.)
He's tasting the pasta. (= He's testing the flavour of ...)

Relotive Pronouns
• Relative pronouns, (who(m), which, that, whose), introduce relative clauses. А relative clause gives us
information about which particular person ог thing the speaker is referring to.
The girl y.,ho works in the bakery, is ту cousin.
f
relative clause
(Тhе relative clause tells us which girl we аге talking about.)
• We use who/that to refer to people.
The lady who lives next door has lots of pets.
• We use which/that to refer to things/objects ог animals.
/ saw а film which was extremely interesting.
• Who/Which/Тhat cannot Ье omitted when it is the subject of the relative clause.
She is the girl ,who lives in the High Street., / ат reading а book which is vегу boring.
t

subject
su:ject
• Who/Which/Тhat сап Ье omitted when it is the object of the relative clause, i.e. when there is а noun ог
personal pronoun between the relative pronoun and the verb.
/ spoke to а woman ,(who(m)Jthat) / had met before., This is the саг /which/that) he bought last weeki
t
object
f
obJect
• We use whose instead of possessive adjectives (ту, уоиг, his, etc.) with people, objects and animals to
show possession.
This is Mrs Thomas, whose daughter is а doctor.
• А relative pronoun is not used with another pronoun (1, you, me, him, etc.).
/ know the тап who � won first prize in the competition.

Note: • who's: who is or who has


Who's she? (= who is)
That's the lady who's got ап Alsatian dog. (= who has)
• whose: possessive
Не's the тап whose dog Ьit те.

Relotive Adverbs
Where, when, and why аге relative adverbs and сап introduce relative clauses.
• Where is used to refer to place usually after nouns like house, hotel, street, town, country, etc. lt сап Ье
replaced Ьу which/that + preposition. ln this case, which/that сап Ье omitted.
The hotel where we stayed was fantastic.
The hotel (which/that) we stayed at was fantastic.
• When is used to refer to time, usually after nouns like time, period, moment, day, summer, etc. lt сап
either Ье omitted ог replaced Ьу that.
/ гететЬег the day (when) ту son was Ьогп.
/ гететЬег the day that ту son was Ьот.
• Why is used to give reason, usually after the word reason. lt сап either Ье omitted or replaced Ьу that.
The reason (why) / can't соте to уоиг party is that /'т extremely tired.
The reason that / can't соте to уоиг party is that /'т extremely tired.

Posilion of Preoosilions in Relotive Clouses


Prepositions сап come either before relative pronouns or at the end of the relative clause. However, we
usually avoid using them before relative pronouns.
The сатрапу for which she warks sells computers. (farmal use)
The сотрапу which she works for sells computers. (informal - usual structure)
The сатрапу she works for sells computers. (everyday English)

Note: Who and that are not used after prepositions.


This is the girl with whom / played tennis. (formal)
This is the girl (who) / played tennis with. (informal)

Adverbs of Frequency
• Adverbs of frequency (always, usually, often, sometimes, гаге/у, se/dom, hardly ever, never, etc.) tell us
how often something happens. Adverbs of frequency answer the question How often ...?
"How often do уои watch quiz shows?" "/ sometimes watch quiz shows in the evening."
• Adverbs of frequency usually соте before the main verb but after the verb to Ье and auxiliary or modal
verbs such as do, сап, must, etc.
• The adverbs rarely, seldom, and never have а negative meaning and are never used with the word not.
Sam never goes cycling during the week. Not: Sam двvвr fieввr1't 9в cycling during the week.
• Adverbs of frequency always go before the auxiliary verb in short answers.
А: Оо уои listen to the radio?
В: Yes, / sometimes do.

Used lo/Be use(I lo/Gel used 10 - Time C\(шses

Used to/Be used to/Gel used to


• We use used to + infinitive to refer to past hablts or t.hings that do not happen any more. ln such cases
"used to" can Ье replaced Ьу the past simple with no difference in meaning.
She used to walk/walked to work when she was younger. (She doesn't апу тоге.)
Did he use to tel1 уои stories?/Did he tel1 уои stories?
However, for actions which happened at а definite time in the past we use the past simple and not "used to".
They went to Jamaica last summer. (NOT: They ывеgЕв gв to Jamaica last summer.)
• We use be/get used to + noun/pronoun/-ing form to refer to habltual actions or actions/things somebody
has become accustomed to.
Study the examples below to see how we can use be/get used to:
They are used to cold weather. (Тhеу are accustomed to cold weather. -present)
l'm used to going to bed late. (/'т accustomed to going to bed late. -present)
Не wasn't used to working night shifts. (Не wasn't accustomed to working night shifts. -past)
Laura is getting used to wearing а uniform. (Laura is becoming accustomed to wearing а uniform. -present)
Саго/ had never cooked for herself before, but she got used to it. (She Ьесате accustomed to it. -past)
They wi/1 soon get used to taking саге of their possessions. (Тhеу will Ьесоте accustomed to taking саге
of their possessions. - future)

Time Clouses
• Time clauses are introduced with the following time conjunctions: when, as, while, before, since, after,
until/till, Ьу the time, as soon as, etc.
before = before а past time
Ann got engaged /ast month. Нег sister had got engaged three months before.
ago = before now
Jason got his degree а year ago.
Ьу the time + clause = before, not later than the moment something happens
Ву the time we got home, he had finished cleaning the kitchen.
until/till + clause/time adverb = up to the time when
She waited until the boys had left for school.
Ьу = not later than
Тот must finish his project Ьу Monday.
while/as + clause = in the time period
The light went out while /as / was having а shower.
as soon as = the moment (that)
We called our mother as soon as we arrived at our hotel.
when (time conjunction) + present tense
when (question word) + will
/'// water the plants when / get home. (time conjunction)
When wi/1 уои Ье in town again? (question word)
• Time clauses are subordinate clauses and usually go with а main clause. When the time clause precedes
the main clause, а comma is used to separate the two clauses.
ffter / had done the washing-up ,' wrote а letter to Мит.

• We never use future tenses after time conjunctions. We use the present simple ог the present perfect
instead.
/ wi/1 relax after 1 finish/have finished cooking.

Sequence of Tenses
• Time clauses follow the rule of the sequence of tenses. That is, when the verb of the main clause is in а
present or future form, the verb of the time clause is in а present form. When the verb of the main clause
is in а past form, the verb of the time clause is in а past form, too.
